In the spirit of Rey’s simplification of the vast cosmos into a more legible shorthand, Lacouture expands on her series of Flags to Fold in Pocket with the new body of work, Night Sky Maps. The portable maps convey the magnitude of the stars via stamped star symbols on a cosmic background, with each constellation labeled using its common and Latin name. Made with delicate Sekishu paper, the material’s durability is enhanced by manipulating, folding, and dyeing it dozens of times. The process strengthens the paper’s fibers while creating a soft, fabric-like texture. Whether someone carries it in their back pocket, or frames it, or crumples it up, these weathered and durable maps are meant to go the distance as guides for finding light among dark times.
